Personal Finance books in japanese

Post by Petronius »

Hi guys,

What is the Japanese equivalent of "millionaire teacher" or "financial samurai"?
My Japanese friend is just starting on personal finance and investing but I do not know what the books of reference in Japanese are.

Look for new books on 新NISA and iDECO

Depending on age and family status, maybe Insurance of various types.

Depending on age and income, start with iDECO, 新NISA; Tsumitate and maybe Investment, and concentrate on Low Cost No-Load Index Funds.

新NISA starts next year, so not any book that doesn't say New 新 in the title

It's even worse because there is an abandoned plan called 新NISA too. Next year is 新しいNISA according to the FSA , but some places refer to it as 新NISA too, which is understandable because they mean the same thing.
